Review
“For months I saw and heard the buzz about Twitter, but it wasn’t until Joel told me details about it that I fully understood its marketing implications. Now I can clearly see how this free site can help me further build relationships with my customers, and I am going to be ‘tweeting’ frequently! In (more…)

Twitter Power is Available on Your Own
This is a nice handbook for someone who is just getting started dabbling in the social network arena; however, if you’ve been exposed to Twitter for more than a couple of months,…
This is the third Twitter book I have read and this one was the best by far. In my reading and marking pages, I found at least 50 specific marketing strategies I can use right now. Being an author of 20 books myself, I am a tough critic of these kinds of books. I would give this one my highest recommendation for anyone wanting to learn about Twitter or online marketing in general.

Highly recommended for experienced Twitterers and newbies alike
This book on the ins and outs of Twitter can just as easily benefit the brand new Twitterer as an experienced one.

Joel Comm Has Done It Again…
There is no doubt about it. First he did “The Adsense Code”, then “Click Here to Order”, and now he surpassed even the best of expectations with “Twitter Power.
I was disappointed with Twitter Power, especially after reading the many reviews that claimed this book would reveal many techniques for both beginners and pros alike. For anyone that has been using Twitter for more than a couple weeks, this book is really 101. It seems to be geared towards people that have never heard of Twitter or are just getting started. If that’s the case, this book will help you get your feet wet, but it doesn’t shed light on anything you can’t pick up on your own simply by using Twitter for a few days.
Twitter is real time with instant response in most cases, and you’ll find out what works for you and what doesn’t almost immediately. You can also pay attention to the power players and note their approach. The book just points you to the top users on Twitter anyways. Save your money and do a little homework.
I’ve given an extra star because 10% of author proceeds go towards sustainable long term water solutions in developing areas of the globe.
I’ve been following Joel on Twitter for over a year as of writing this. Over that time I’ve seen his Twitter following grow by thousands of followers! Watching this amazing growth and following Joel’s tweets I’ve realized he definitely knows Twitter inside and out. I’m glad he’s finally released all his knowledge and tips into book format.
Just in the the first few chapters Twitter Power covers the basics and potential mistakes I see SO MANY people making with Twitter. It then goes on to cover many other helpful aspects such as how to use Twitter to build your brand, getting help, building a team, applications you can use with Twitter, and more.
I highly recommend reading Twitter power for anyone that uses Twitter and wants to get the most out of it.

Great read even for long time Twitter users!
I’m a long time Twitter user, and still found Twitter Power to be a great read! There were lots of tools and ideas that I hadn’t seen or thought of before, and it has been great…

Very disappointed in Twitter Power
I found the book too basic in some ways, very redundant, and not particularly helpful. An example- lots of stuff on how to gain new followers (none of it particularly original)…

What my mom told me about Twitter!
Well to tell you the truth – my mom did not have anything to tell me about Twitter.
But what she could not tell me, was totally compensated by Joel Comm in his new…

For a beginner, great. For someone familiar with social media, not so much.
Thanks to the likes of Oprah and all the celebs who are now on Twitter, social media novices are coming to the site in droves. Even my own mother set up an account.
